Tesla is a transportation and energy company. It sells vehicles under its 'Tesla Motors' division and stationary battery pack for home, commercial and utility-scale projects under its 'Tesla Energy' division. The history of Tesla Sure, you now know Tesla as a Cerberus of energy innovation, software, and booming stock, but it wasn`t always the clean energy juggernaut we know today. In fact, Tesla as a company has overcome quite a few obstacles to get where it stands today as the most valuable automaker by market cap. Tesla Inc. was founded in 2003 as Tesla Motors by Martin Eberhard and Marc Tarpenning. If you`ve been living on a deserted island or under a large rock the past 18 years, you may be surprised to hear that the company`s name is a tribute to inventor Nikola Tesla. Regardless, Ian Wright joined Tesla shortly thereafter, and the three original employees were off to the races in search of funding. That`s where Elon Musk comes in. In early 2004, Tesla Motors managed to raise $7.5 million in series A funding, including investor Musk, who contributed all but $1 million of that total. As a result, Musk joined the company as chairman of the board. J. B. Straubel, now of QuantumScape fame, joined Tesla in May 2004 as employee #5. As a result of the first of many controversies surrounding the company, a 2009 lawsuit settlement allows all five of the original employees to call themselves co-founders. Elon Musk After an early investment and a role at the company, Musk began spearheading public statements for Tesla while helping facilitate more funding. This included several additional rounds, each garnering tens of millions of dollars. Musk openly discussed the company strategy of creating a sleek and stylish sports car to attract early adopters (and their wallets) before expanding production to more practical and affordable EVs with the cash flow to scale. This led to the introduction of Tesla`s flagship EV, the Roadster, which debuted as a prototype in the summer of 2006. In 2007, cofounder Martin Eberhard was asked to step down as CEO by the board of directors, and by early 2008, neither Eberhard nor Tarpenning was still at Tesla. That is when Musk took over as CEO, a position he still holds today- along with [Technoking of Tesla." The Roadster The Tesla Roadster hit production in 2008 as the original electric vehicle to debut for the American automaker. It helped show that EVs could be carbon conscious and cool, helping pave the way for Tesla to develop and sell more practical and efficient vehicles. Although it was a niche vehicle from a relatively unknown automaker at the time, The Roadster emerged as the first highway legal serial production BEV to use lithium-ion batteries. It was also the first fully-electric production vehicle to travel over 200 miles on a single charge. Tesla ended up selling close to 2,500 first-generation Roadsters over the course of the four years it was in production. Small potatoes by today`s Tesla standards, but this Roadster remains the EV that put Tesla on the map and kicked in the door of an industry still very much focused on internal combustion engines. It remains a collector`s item for many as the original Tesla. Used Roadsters remain coveted EVs and are still available on the used car market. Model S, energy storage, and Model X Tesla started to gain steam in 2010 when it purchased what would become its Fremont Factory to begin production on two new EVs. Later that year, Tesla launched an IPO on the NASDAQ as the first American automaker to do so in over 50 years. After discontinuing The Roadster in early 2012, Tesla began production on its Model S sedan the following summer. 2015 proved to be another tremendous year for the automaker, as Tesla ventured into energy storage solutions with the introduction of its Powerwall for the home and Powerpack battery packs. Shortly thereafter, Tesla introduced its third EV: an SUV called the Model X. Solar and Model 3 In 2016, Tesla acquired SolarCity, thus entering the solar energy game as well. It was at this point that the company dropped the [Motors" from its name, which includes solar and energy solutions in addition to electric vehicles. Profits from previous EV models and new energy ventures allowed Tesla to scale and produce its Model 3 sedan, a mass-market EV that remains the most affordable option in the company fleet. Production issues plagued the entire production process on the Model 3, but Tesla was eventually able to deliver at a reasonable price, making it one of the best-selling EVs of all time in its short tenure. Model Y and beyond It would be three whole years before Tesla would deliver a new EV after the Model 3, but in March of 2020, The Model Y crossover emerged. Tesla continues to sell many of the two newly introduced EVs compared to the original S and X models, although both have seen a significant refresh this year. For now, Tesla continues to expand its global production presence with two new Gigafactories on the way, along with three additional vehicles. This includes Cybertruck, the Tesla Semi, and a 2nd generation Roadster. We will get deeper into those models a little later. For now, we will focus on Tesla`s current EV offerings. Current Tesla EVs As the company currently stands, Tesla has four electric vehicles in its fleet, varying in a number of ways - particularly in availability. In terms of sedans, Tesla has its veteran Model S and more consumer-friendly Model 3. The Model X sits as Tesla`s largest EV on the current market, while the Model Y is the company`s most recent offering as more of a smaller, crossover SUV. Below is a breakdown of each vehicle in greater detail. Model S The Model S sedan is Tesla`s longest-running EV in production to date. It made its official debut in 2012 after years as a prototype for the automaker. Since then, the sporty EV has reigned as the best-selling plug-in electric in both 2015 and 2016. Sales of the veteran Tesla have slowed since the launch of the automaker`s more cost-friendly Model 3 and Model Y EVs, but the Model S still sits as a premier sedan that offers a variety of luxury and performance for those who can afford it. You can check out 2021 Model S pricing here. The current Long Range trim can travel 405 miles on a single charge, hit a top speed of 155 mph, and tear from 0-60 mph in 3.1 seconds. Tesla recently revealed in its Model S refresh that the vehicle will now come in either a Plaid or Plaid+ trim with varied range. Model S Plaid/Plaid+ Tesla originally claimed the Plaid+ will be able to travel an EPA estimated 520+ miles on a single charge compared to 390 miles on the regular old Plaid. Either tri-motor option can also reach a top speed of 200 mph, blowing a hole through the top speed previously held by its [ludicrous mode." At 0-60 mph in under 2 seconds, this upcoming Tesla EV has already claimed the throne of quickest of any production car ever. Originally the Plaid was scheduled to begin deliveries this spring with the Plaid+ to follow in late 2021. Those plans have since changed, however. In June, Elon Musk revealed that Tesla would be scrapping the Plaid+ Model S altogether, because no one needs more than 400 miles of range and the new Plaid, [is just so good." The Model S is Plaid is now available and has been delivering to customers. However, those who order now likely won`t see their delivery until 2022.

While some EV automaker`s are working to deliver EV numbers in the tens of thousands, China`s Build Your Dreams (BYD) is on an entirely different level. The automotive manufacturing conglomerate is celebrating five million new energy vehicles (NEVs) built – a feat in it of itself, but an even greater tell to just how quickly BYD`s production lines are expanding. Since its inception in 1995, BYD has quickly risen through the ranks as a major global manufacturer, excelling especially in electric vehicles and the battery technology. Including the commercial side of its new energy vehicles (BEVs and plug-in hybrids), BYD has a presence in 400 cities across more than 70 countries. On the passenger side of EVs, we`ve seen BYD extent its footprint more recently to markets like Japan and Europe, delivering vehicles like the super popular ATTO 3. From a production standpoint, BYD builds NEVs beyond China, including plans for three new facilities in Brazil and a potential $1 billion plant in India that currently sits on shaky ground. BYD describes itself as a [driving force in the industry" (not sure if pun was intended there but hope so), and it has the production clout to back it up. If you aren`t already aware of the BYD name, you soon will as the automaker continues to expand its lineup of brands, the EVs those marques offer, and the amount of assembly lines needed to keep up. A better question is probably, can everyone else keep up? BYD`s production ramp up outpaces- well, everyone BYD Auto`s five millionth new energy vehicle to roll off its assembly lines in China was an N7 SUV from its Denza sub-brand (seen above). As it proclaims itself as the first global automaker to reach five million NEVs (BEVs and plug-in hybrids), BYD has a lot to celebrate – but a more impressive statistic is how quickly the manufacturer got here. The company points out that it took 13 years to reach one million NEVs produced, but here`s where things get interesting. From there, it only took BYD Auto another 18 months to reach three million, then another 9 months from there to reach five million, helping garner over $1.86 million in sales last year. Needless to say, BYD`s production lines are humming and showing no signs of slowing down. Per BYD chairman and president Wang Chuanfu: This year alone (through July), BYD says it has sold over 1.5 million, 92,469 of which came from markets outside of China like Europe for instance. While that`s a relatively small number compared to overall sales, it`s already more than double the company`s 2022 total – a sure sign that sales (and coinciding production levels) are on track to grow as BYD continues expanding to new territories. Looking ahead, BYD looks to continue to invest big bucks in R&D and continue to expand its quest to become a household name around the globe. Per its release: In the future, BYD, already taking the lead in the new energy revolution, will remain true to its aspiration of eco-friendliness and provide better mobility experiences to more customers around the world, accelerating the transition towards a greener future and contributing to its vision to Cool the Earth by 1°C.
